• Commerce Server Root Category Ranking Issue

  Hello, I'm having an issue with the .GetRootCategory method call. Here's the situation. Before I call the .GetRootCategory I set a where clause and pass it along. The method doesn't return me any results. But when I don't include the where clause I get expected results. Here's what I did (The where clause is included): 1. The current catalog has ranks for all root categories. So I created a new category with no rank and boom that new category was returned. If I set a rank to that category; it is not returned anymore. I've traced the issue in the ctlg_FillCategoryDescendants sproc: Here's the code. IF @oid = -1 BEGIN if (@fVirtualCatalog <> 0) BEGIN -- Insert the Categorys first-level descendents in the #Desc_Oids ...Show All

• Audio and Video Development Loading Resources

  After I installed the newer iHDSimulator none of my projects would load. I get a resource load error and have to Ctrl+Alt+Del and kill the app. I ran the validator and it doesn't find any of my resource files. So I thought maybe this is a good time to start loading from and ACA. I've read the spec, and looked at HD-DVD release titles and have noticed that some titles load resources from an ACA by declaring it as an ApplicationResource and others load from a TitleResource. First question: what is the difference In both examples they seem to be using it to load per Title. Second question, why is my playlist no validating properly on resource load ### Playlist ### <Playlist xmlns="http://www.dvdforum.org/2005/HDDVDVideo/Playlist" xmlns:x ...Show All

• Windows Forms ListView is not showing groups

  I am using VS 2005 and trying to show some strings in ListView in Three groups. I have tried creating groups both by code and desingner. No one works. Can any one point out some reason. The ListView is using 'Details' style. But I have tried with 'List' style as well. Thanks for your help but the problem remains the same. I created the LV with the procedure you mensioned and then added groups and items. But still the items are being shown without any grouping i.e. they are shown in simple one list without any group headers showing up. Something else is wrong i feel. ...Show All

• .NET Development errors adding a web service with sockets to a C++ project

  Hi everyone, I have a web service which communicates via TCP to a C# program. When I invoke it's methods through a browser, they work fine and can communicate perfectly with the C# program. However, when I attempt to add the web service to a C++ MFC DLL I've created, I get multiple warnings, but with only 2 unique: 1) Warning 3 warning SDL4008 : skipping unrecognized extensibility element, with c:\Documents and Settings\*******\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\Extend\Extend\CalcSvc\CalcWS.wsdl 84 2) Warning 9 warning SDL4001 : only one SOAP port will be processed. c:\Documents and Settings\cpappas\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\Extend\Extend\CalcSvc\CalcWS.wsdl 104 I am assuming it is because the web service opens a s ...Show All

• SQL Server PERSISTED Column In View

  I have a view that calls a User Defined Function. I want to index this calculated column if possible, but trying to do so gives me an error saying that I have to mark the column PERSISTED. I see how it's possible to do this when creating tables with calculated columns, but is it possible to do this from within the view itself Thanks for the reply, Adam. Yes. I do have a clusterred index on the view already. Adding a non-clustered index on the calculated non-key column isn't working, though. It gives a message about the column: "Cannot create index or statistics '[Index Name]' on view '[View Name]' because key column '[Column Name I Want To Index]' is imprecise, computed and not persist ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) How to crop an Image using Stretch="UniformToFill" using center of image

    I have a ListBoxItem which is basically an <Image Source="{Binding }> of specific size and aspect ratio - I need to smartly scale and crop the source images to fit the <Image> element. The Stretch="UniformToFill" does exactly this, however, it seems that the cropping is a top or left aligned, and not a "centered" crop. uhgggg.... Is there a way to get UniformToFill do a centered crop I have assumed not, and gone down the path of doing the cropping myself as such" class ObservableCollectio<BitmapImage> foreach (FileInfo f in _directory.GetFiles("*.jpg")) {     bm = new BitmapImage(new Uri(f.FullName, UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute));     if (bm.Height > bm.Width)  &nbs ...Show All

• SQL Server How to increase SSIS performance

  Hello again, I'll just throw my question: how could I increase SSIS-performance I have a really heavy job with thousands of records my base selection, then I perform some lookups (I replaced most of them by sql) and derived columns (again, I replaced as much as possible by sql). Finally, after a slowly changing dimension task, I do update/insert on a given table. Is there a trick to speed up lookups and inserts (something like manipulating the buffer sizes - just asking). Fact is that I replaced a script task by pure sql-joins and gained 6 of the 12 hours this job took. Any ideas Greets, Tom Tom De Cort wrote: Hello again, I'll just throw my question: how could I increase SSIS-performance I have a really h ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Project Properties|Code Analysis tab missing

  I got a new laptop last week and am in the process of migrating everything from my old laptop. I installed Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition for Software Developers - same version as I had on my old laptop. However, I find that I'm missing the "Code Analysis" tab under Project|Properties. (There were a few other minor menu variances - such as 'Batch Build' missing from the Build menu option.) All I get are Application, Build, Build Events, Debug, Resources, Settings, Reference Paths, and Signing. I can actually run the Code Analysis by right-clicking on the project and selecting 'Run Code Analysis' - I just can't access the GUI to customize the rules. :-( Only difference I can think of is the source of the installation.
